About This Movie

Moon (2020) by Zoé Pelchat-Ouellet presents a hauntingly intimate look at isolation and the quest for connection. Babz Dubreuil, played with a raw authenticity, navigates her life post-incarceration, and the atmosphere is thick with both hope and trepidation. The pacing is deliberate, allowing you to really sit with her struggles, yet it’s punctuated by those fleeting moments of romance that feel both fragile and electric. The practical effects of the everyday setting—think brunch restaurant vibes—ground the emotional arcs in a way that feels very real. There’s something about the way Babz interacts with her world that might resonate with anyone who's felt like an outsider. It’s a subtle exploration of redemption, where every small victory carries weight.
